VE_AdFrames_Rich Media_Custom
PR_Mrs. gert Custom Marketplace_Rich Media_160x600

How to parse it into 4 values separated by underscore?
I am using the following, but it does not work for one, where there is a dot (PR_Mrs. gert Custom Marketplace_Rich Media_160x600).

parsename(replace(site_placement,'_','.'),1)as plac,
parsename(replace(site_placement,'_','.'),2)as placeme,
parsename(replace(site_placement,'_','.'),3)as acement_c,
parsename(replace(site_placement,'_','.'),4)as plt_cr

Here's one way.

select replace(parsename(replace(replace(site_replacement,'.','~'),'_','.'),1),'~','.')
, replace(parsename(replace(replace(site_replacement,'.','~'),'_','.'),2),'~','.')
, replace(parsename(replace(replace(site_replacement,'.','~'),'_','.'),3),'~','.')
, replace(parsename(replace(replace(site_replacement,'.','~'),'_','.'),4),'~','.')
